Well, that's all medication for you. It's always a matter of weighing the pros and cons. If you're diabetic, and have you to take some treatment, you might at least choose the one that will less affect your brain. Healthy people, on the other hand, would feel more cons than pros. Don't mess with your body unless you really need to.
